Taoist Master of Fantasy World

Chapter 119 Meeting of acquaintances
The next morning, Xu Zhenyun went to "work" on time.

After walking out of his "workstation", Xu Zhenyun looked around and couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the confined space in front of him.

After walking a few steps forward, he passed through a small iron-black door and entered the "side hall" on the left.

The furnishings in the house have undergone great changes.

In the "side hall" on the left side of the large suite, the floor is paved with thick blue bricks, and the partition walls are also painted copper color. A sense of vigorous strength rushes towards you.

The walls are not smooth and smooth, and are covered with reliefs of tigers, leopards and jackals.

Behind the four wide-backed seats on the left and right, there were two rows of weapon racks, including iron rods, long knives, and spears; but Xu Zhenyun could see at a glance that these were ordinary soldiers and were just for decoration.

Coupled with the huge picture of "The Moon Rising on the Sea" to the north of the hall, it looks exactly like the layout of the government office lobby, except for a large plaque that reads "Upright and Bright".

Thinking of this, Xu Zhenyun looked up.

I was immediately surprised to find that there was actually an extra door eaves in front of the side hall, with a plaque on it with four powerful characters:

"Sweep away all evil."

Another obvious change is the layout of the rooms.

Entering from the main entrance, you can no longer see the six "partitions" on the right side of the house at a glance. Instead, they are all blocked by wooden walls. You can pass through an extended "aisle" to the main hall on the left.

Only through the iron black door behind the main hall can one reach the right side of the room.

The six "small rooms" with partitions for rest have actually become the "back hall".

Although it had begun to take shape yesterday, Xu Zhenyun was still shocked by the fact that a large suite in "Pingshui Residence" was actually transformed into a hidden "yamen".

After catching the evil cultivator and taking the criminal to trial, he came directly from "Pingshui Residence" and went up to the fourth floor...

Isn’t the painting style a bit strange?Or can living people be put into storage rings?

Xu Zhenyun's thoughts were running wild.

At this moment, the people outside the door seemed to sense that there was an extra person in the room, and they immediately filed in.

The first one is Liang Hongbo.

Liang Hongbo chuckled and said, "Brother Zhenyun, you are so shocked after not seeing me overnight. How different you are."

Then he extended his hand to guide us back and said, "These two are acquaintances. It can be said that we all got together because of the influence of Brother Zhenyun."

"Zhenyun...brother."

"Xu Zhenyun, see you again today. You and I are already like-minded."

The first "Brother Zhenyun" was a little awkward and obviously unskilled; the second voice, with a warm and eloquent voice, was much more comfortable.

Xu Zhenyun looked up and saw that the person who called out "Brother Zhenyun" was a middle-aged man wearing three crowns and a red robe; it was the "Master Ye" who was at the "Pengcheng Banquet" that day. ; It seems to be named Ye Dachuan.

There is also a photo of him on the big painting scroll.

Behind Hall Master Ye is an old acquaintance—Nanyang County Magistrate, Li Bingwen!
The real name of "County Magistrate Li" was Li Bingwen, which Xu Zhenyun later learned from Ji Xiaohua.

Liang Hongbo introduced: "Liang is the left envoy of the Demon Suppression Division, and Brother Ye is appointed as the right envoy. From now on, when performing official duties, one of them, Brother Ye and I, must accompany us."

Xu Zhenyun understood clearly.

Mu Xiuxin's "sustenance" method mentioned yesterday was based on these two people.

But after thinking about it for a moment, Xu Zhenyun felt strange.

Hall Master Ye is one of the hall masters under Fang Chenyuan; now he has been transferred to the Demon Suppression Department?

And if I remember correctly, Hall Master Ye should be a fourth-grade cultivator; although his "fourth-grade" cultivation is incomparable to Ji Xiaohua's, he is still a fourth-grade cultivator after all. Here he serves as the "equal and deputy" to Liang Hongbo, a fifth-grade cultivator. "The role of"?

Hall Master Ye rubbed his hands angrily and said: "For local officials, there are many situations where a county guard is in the eighth grade and the county magistrate is in the seventh grade. But among the 'official posts', the ranks are reversed. The Great Jin established the country." There have been no more than ten cases since then.”

"Ye is so unlucky!"

But when he said he was unlucky, there was a faint smile on his lips. It was clearly a joke and he didn't take it seriously.

The Demon Suppression Division sends out the envoy of the branch hall. This position should be filled by a senior Golden Guard and fifth-grade monk like Liang Hongbo.

Hall Master Ye's taking up this position is actually considered a "degradation".

Liang Hongbo did not argue, but smiled and explained for Xu Zhenyun: "Old Liang, I just said it. We are gathered because of you, my dear brother Zhenyun. This is not an empty talk."

"Vice-President Mu said to me that the First Lord Jinguo Yu said, 'Choose someone with the right cultivation level and status and who is destined to you.' Brother Ye was the first to propose postponing the 'Pengcheng Banquet' when you participated in the Liuhe Linglong Tower assessment. 'Time is waiting for you to go out of bounds."

Xu Zhenyun's expression straightened up and he gently cupped his hands to Ye Dachuan.

Although he didn't say a word, it still meant "everything is left unsaid."

Hall Master Ye's eyes flashed red, and a smile bloomed on his face.

With Xu Zhenyun surrendering, everything seems to be worth it!

Liang Hongbo added: "There is no need to introduce County Magistrate Li. Now he has the same rank as you and is a Silver Guard."

However, County Magistrate Li looked serious and said with emotion: "The transfer from a casual official to a full-time official is all due to your opportunity, Xu Zhenyun."

Although more than [-]% of the county magistrates in Shendu are held by sixth-grade monks, there is a big difference between a county magistrate who is a casual official and a Baiyin Guard under the Demon Suppression Department.Liang Hongbo added: "Two envoys equivalent to the rank of Gold Guards and two Silver Guards are the backbone of this branch hall. There are still eight Bronze Guards under the jurisdiction. However, the candidates are still being urgently selected. Yes; I'll be here to report at Dian Mao about tomorrow."

After a pause, Liang Hongbo smiled again and said: "The one who will arrive tomorrow will probably be a reward from you, Brother Zhenyun."

award?

Xu Zhenyun immediately remembered that he killed Zhao Hengfeng yesterday.

Ye Dachuan sighed: "If in a battle, a top direct descendant kills a low-level being of a higher level, there is actually no gain, and the multiplier is just 'one'."

"But because of the secrecy of evil cultivators, the multiplier for any evil cultivator who is discovered and killed will always be the highest, which is 'ten'. Adding the basic merit value, it should be No. 18, five hundred."

"Brother Zhenyun, you made a move and gained [-] merit points, which is equivalent to one month's salary of the fourth grade. It's amazing."

The sixth grade is eight hundred; the fourth grade is five thousand.

Xu Zhenyun calculated silently in his mind.

Liang Hongbo patted Xu Zhenyun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I'll be the host. Let's go have a meal together. Should it be the nearby Zhengming Building, or the slightly farther Dong'an Building or Dingtai Building? Xu Zhenyun, you choose?"

Xu Zhenyun wanted to say, "It's still early to go to a restaurant," but remembering Mu Qingyun's instructions, he smiled and said, "Recently, I've been wandering around Shenwu Avenue to the west of Tianxin Garden; let's see the scenery of East Street today!"

"Dingtai Tower."

Dingtai Building is some distance away from "Pingshui Residence"; if the "pupilless man" is really "stalking", he will definitely have sufficient reaction time.

In addition, this is also a test.

Xu Zhenyun had never been to East Street before.

It's a good time to see whether this person's goal is to regard himself as the "sole focus", or to conduct fire reconnaissance of the entire Jin Dynasty's stronghold in "Pingshuiju".

If he is the target, then even if he changes to East Street, this person will appear soon.

Liang Hongbo smiled and replied: "Okay, Dingtai Tower."

Four people go out.

After walking out of the gate of Pingshui Residence and walking up the solid wooden right aisle, Xu Zhenyun's heart moved and he asked: "Old Liang. After I left yesterday, did Deputy Mu find any new clues from the corpse of the evil cultivator?"

After a frank and in-depth exchange with Mu Qingyun last night, Xu Zhenyun's mentality was completely different.

Since even the news of "people without pupils" has been proactively raised and tried to be solved, then the other minor "perception abilities" are not a problem.

If Mu Xiuxin found nothing unusual, Xu Zhenyun decided to provide clues to "Li Ji Incense Candle Shop".

Liang Hongbo said: "There is a clue. About an hour later, Deputy Mu borrowed a rare object, which was called 'Li Ji Incense Candle Shop'. But when I was summoned and asked, I learned that there was a place there three months ago. It is a base for evil cultivators; but it has been cracked recently, so this clue is of little value."

Xu Zhenyun nodded and said: "That's it."

It is only reasonable that the sealing means that the eighth-level evil cultivator can obtain will not be difficult for the top cultivators of the Great Advancement.

Ye Dachuan smiled and said: "Today is a rare rest day. It is rare that brother Zhenyun still cares about official duties. Could it be that he is earning merit points based on this matter?"

Ye Dachuan was joking; but Xu Zhenyun said in his heart, I do have similar thoughts!
Liang Hongbo said: "After dinner, I will accompany Brother Zhenyun to finish yesterday's unfinished business? What's the use of buying five or six outfits? If you two need it, you can also buy it together."

Xu Zhenyun glanced at County Magistrate Li next to him and said with a smile: "Actually, with Brother Li's ready-made example, I should have thought of it a long time ago."

"The 'father Li Changshou' I saw in the martial arts school was not someone who could reasonably be imagined to have the temperament of a bamboo craftsman. At that time, Brother Li's own clothing, even his demeanor, were completely consistent with those of a bamboo craftsman."

Li Bingwen smiled and said: "Xu Zhenyun, you had not yet entered Taoism at that time, how could you think of this?"

While talking, the four of them crossed the first alleyway on the right.

Xu Zhenyun's eyes suddenly focused.

It did appear!
They were still facing each other, coming toward each other; but they were still far apart for the time being, about a hundred feet away.

Compared with yesterday, his clothes remained the same, except that he wore an extra hat on his head.

It hadn't been long since the four of them had left the gate of Pingshui Residence, and today they were heading to East Street; this person just happened to appear far away on the opposite side!
Even if you see the four of you go out for a moment, you may not be able to reach your current location in time!

It should be noted that in the center of the divine capital, it is almost impossible for people on espionage missions to use magical powers such as teleportation. This is obviously a self-digging move to attract attention.

Could it be that he has the ability to set up a teleportation array network in the divine capital?

The distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and after a while, they reached within ten feet.

Let's end it today.

Xu Zhenyun said silently in his heart.

The mind travels inward and communicates with "Xu Xiaohei" and the square mirror at the same time.

It was Mu Qingyun's arrangement to communicate with the square mirror; but it was Xu Zhenyun's precaution to communicate with "Xu Xiaohei" at the same time.

At this moment, although the square mirror was not taken out, the mirror's luster flowed in the consciousness, and Mu Qingyun's face still appeared.

Xu Zhenyun’s spiritual consciousness transmitted the message: “The First Master is here.”
